Against the latest court filings by John Durham, highlighting the tip of the political surveillance iceberg, I have been asked to re-post the deep dive into the totality of the scale of the iceberg. I will add some of the latest information into the outline to show how it all connects.
Barack Obama and Eric Holder did not create a weaponized DOJ and FBI; instead, what they did was take the preexisting system and retool it, so the weapons only targeted one side of the political continuum.
Together they recalibrated the domestic surveillance capabilities, the internal spying systems, so that only their political opposition would be targeted. This point is where many people understandably get confused.
In the era shortly after 9/11, the DC national security apparatus was constructed to preserve continuity of government and simultaneously view all Americans as potential threats. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) were created specifically for this purpose.
What Barack Obama and Eric Holder did with that new construct was refine the internal targeting mechanisms so that only their ideological opposition became the target of the new national security system. This is a very important nuance to understand as you dig deeper into this research outline.
Washington DC created the modern national security apparatus immediately and hurriedly after 9/11/01. DHS came along in 2002 and within the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 the ODNI was formed. When Barack Obama and Eric Holder arrived a few years later, those newly formed institutions were viewed as opportunities to create a very specific national security apparatus that would focus almost exclusively against their political opposition.
The preexisting Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Dept of Justice (DOJ) were then repurposed to become two of the four pillars of the domestic national security apparatus. However, this new construct would have a targeting mechanism based on political ideology. The DHS, ODNI, DOJ and FBI became the four pillars of this new institution. Atop these pillars is where you will find the Fourth Branch of Government.
We were not sleeping when this happened, we were wide awake. However, we were stunningly distracted by the economic collapse that was taking place in 2006 and 2007 when the engineers behind Obama started to assemble the design. By the time Obama took office in 2009, we sensed something profound was shifting, but we can only see exactly what shifted in the aftermath. The four pillars were put into place, and a new Fourth Branch of Government was quietly created.
As time passed, and the system operators became familiar with their new tools, technology allowed the tentacles of the system to reach out and touch us. That is when we first started to notice that something very disconcerting was happening. Those four pillars are the root of it, and if we take the time to understand how the Fourth Branch originated, questions about this current state of perpetual angst will start to make sense.
Grab a cup of your favorite beverage and take a walk with me as we outline how this was put together. You might find many of the questions about our current state of political affairs beginning to make a lot more sense.
Remember, it is not my intent to outline the entire history of how we got to this place where the intelligence community now acts as the superseding fourth branch of government. Such an effort would be exhausting and likely take our discussion away from understanding the current dynamic.
History provided enough warnings from Dwight D. Eisenhower (military) to John F. Kennedy (CIA), to Richard Nixon (FBI), to all modern versions of warnings and frustrations from HPSCI Devin Nunes and ODNI Ric Grenell. None of those prior reference points are invalid, and all documented outlines of historic reference are likely true and accurate. However, a generational review is not useful, as the reference impacting us ‘right now‘ gets lost.
Instead, we pick up the expansive and weaponized intelligence system as it manifests after 9/11/01, and my goal is to highlight how the modern version of the total intelligence apparatus has now metastasized into a Fourth Branch of Government. It is this superseding branch that now touches and influences every facet of our life.
If we take the modern construct, originating at the speed of technological change, we can also see how the oversight or “check/balance” in our system of government became functionally obsolescent.
After many years of granular research about the intelligence apparatus inside our government, in the summer of 2020 I visited Washington DC to ask specific questions. My goal was to go where the influence agents within government actually operate, and to discover the people deep inside the institutions no one elected, and few people pay attention to.
It was during this process when I discovered how information is purposefully put into containment silos; essentially a formal process to block the flow of information between agencies and between the original branches. While frustrating to discover, the silo effect was important because understanding the communication between networks leads to our ability to reconcile conflict between what we perceive and what’s actually taking place.
After days of research and meetings in DC during 2020; amid a town that was serendipitously shut down due to COVID-19; I found a letter slid under the door of my room in a nearly empty hotel with an introduction of sorts. The subsequent discussions were perhaps the most important. After many hours of specific questions and answers on specific examples, I realized why our nation is in this mess. That is when I discovered the fourth and superseding branch of government, the Intelligence Branch.
I am going to explain how the Intelligence Branch works: (1) to control every other branch of government; (2) how it functions as an entirely independent branch of government with no oversight; (3) how and why it was created to be independent from oversight; (4) what is the current mission of the IC Branch, and most importantly (5) who operates it.
The Intelligence Branch is an independent functioning branch of government, it is no longer a subsidiary set of agencies within the Executive Branch as most would think. To understand the Intelligence Branch, we need to drop the elementary school civics class lessons about three coequal branches of government and replace that outlook with the modern system that created itself.
The Intelligence Branch functions much like the State Dept, through a unique set of public-private partnerships that support it. Big Tech industry collaboration with intelligence operatives is part of that functioning, almost like an NGO. However, the process is much more important than most think. In this problematic perspective of a corrupt system of government, the process is the flaw – not the outcome.
There are people making decisions inside this little known, unregulated and out-of-control branch of government that impact every facet of our lives.
None of the people operating deep inside the Intelligence Branch were elected; and our elected representative House members genuinely do not know how the system works. I assert this position affirmatively because I have talked to House and Senate staffers, including the chiefs of staff for multiple House & Senate committee seats. They are not malicious people; however, they are genuinely clueless of things that happen outside their silo. That is part of the purpose of me explaining it, with examples, in full detail with sunlight.
We begin….
In April of 2016, the FBI launched a counterintelligence operation against presidential candidate Donald Trump. The questioning about that operation is what New York Representative Elise Stefanik cites in March of 2017, approximately 11 months later (First Two Minutes).
Things to note:
♦ Notice how FBI Director James Comey just matter-of-factly explains no one outside the DOJ was informed about the FBI operation. Why? Because that’s just the way things are done. His justification for unilateral operations was “because of the sensitivity of the matter“, totally ignoring any constitutional or regulatory framework for oversight; because, well, quite simply, there isn’t any. The intelligence apparatus inside the DOJ/FBI can, and does, operate based on their own independent determinations of authority.
♦ Notice also how FBI Director Comey shares his perspective that informing the National Security Council (NSC) is the equivalent of notifying the White House. The FBI leadership expressly believe they bear no responsibility to brief the Chief Executive. As long as they tell some unknown, unelected, bureaucratic entity inside the NSC, their unwritten responsibility to inform the top of their institutional silo is complete. If the IC wants to carve out the Oval Office, they simply plant information inside the NSC and, from their perspective, their civic responsibility to follow checks-and-balances is complete. This is an intentional construct.
♦ Notice how Comey obfuscates notification to the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), by avoiding the fact James Clapper was the DNI from outset of the counterintelligence operation throughout the remainder of Obama’s term. When I get deeper into the process, we will understand how the Intelligence Branch has intentionally used the creation of the DNI position (established post 9/11/01) as a method to avoid oversight, not enhance it. Keeping an oblivious doofus like James Clapper in position held strategic value [Doofus Reminder HERE].
That video of James Comey being questioned by Elise Stefanik was the first example given to me by someone who knew the background of everything that was taking place preceding that March 20, 2017, hearing. That FBI reference point is a key to understand how the Intelligence Branch operates with unilateral authority above Congress (legislative branch), above the White House (executive branch), and even above the court system (judicial branch).
Also, watch this short video of James Clapper because it is likely many readers have forgotten, and likely even more readers have never seen it. Watch closely how then White House national security adviser John Brennan is responding in that video. This is before Brennan became CIA Director, this is when Brennan was helping Barack Obama put the pillars into place. WATCH:
[Sidebar: Every time I post this video it gets scrubbed from YouTube (example), so save it if you ever want to see it again.]
The video of James Clapper highlights how the ODNI position (created with good national security intention) ended up becoming the fulcrum for modern weaponization and is now an office manipulated by agencies with a vested interest in retaining power. The Intelligence Branch holds power over the ODNI through their influence and partnership with the body that authorizes the power within it, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI).
Factually, the modern intelligence apparatus uses checks and balances in their favor. The checks create silos of proprietary information, classified information, vaults of information that work around oversight issues. The silos are part of the problem.
Ironically, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) was created in the aftermath of 9/11/01 expressly to eliminate the silos of information which they felt led to a domestic terrorist attack that could have been prevented. The ODNI was created specifically upon the recommendation of the 9/11 commission.
The intent was to create a central hub of intelligence information, inside the Executive Branch, where the CIA, NSA, DoD, DoS, and DIA could deposit their unique intelligence products and a repository would be created so that domestic intelligence operations, like the DOJ and FBI could access them when needed to analyze threats to the U.S. This, they hoped, would ensure the obvious flags missed in the 9/11 attacks would not be missed again.
KEY POINT – Prior to the creation of the ODNI, the terror threats were generally considered ‘external‘ threats that would target us. The intelligence products were threat assessments of entities outside the United States, and how they may present a risk to us in America. However, with the creation of the ODNI the terror threat analysis now looked ‘internally‘. This is so very critical an inflection point it must be emphasized.
Prior to the ODNI the intelligence products from the CIA, NSA, DoD, DoS, DIA, were used to protect us (American citizens) from them (foreign actors). After the ODNI was created those same intelligence products were used to look inward, into U.S. citizens, and as an outcome the tools were used to conduct domestic surveillance of threats to government from ‘inside’ actors. They were protecting government from us.
The terror surveillance radar was no longer pointed offshore. After 9/11 the terror surveillance radar was modified to point inland.
Prior to the ODNI, We The People were what the intelligence system was designed to protect. After the ODNI was created, We The People were now defined as the potential threat. The continuity of government was now what needed to be protected…. FROM US!
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), or Director of National Intelligence (DNI), became the arbiter of information created by institutions that were not previously, constitutionally, allowed to conduct surveillance on U.S. citizens. The NSA data, and all other previously contained tools for terror threat hunting, was now being used by the Dept of Justice and the FBI to look inwardly.
With the constitutional limits around the use of intelligence agencies by the DOJ and FBI now blurred by the elimination of firewalls, the DNI office created a problem. Think of the ODNI as the narrow part of the hourglass. If the DOJ and FBI want to get into the CIA, NSA, DoD, DIA intelligence products they must pass through the ODNI. You’ll see how it was critical to install a person uniquely skilled in being an idiot, James Clapper, into that willfully blind role while intelligence operatives worked around the office to assemble the Intelligence Branch of Government.
Think about what happened at the DOJ and FBI after the ODNI was created. The DOJ began a special unit, the National Security Division (DOJ-NSD) to look secretly at the intelligence material that was previously off-limits for domestic surveillance and targeting. The FBI began counterintelligence operation against American citizens using access to that same intelligence material.
It was only a matter of time before the DOJ-NSD and FBI started to abuse their access to electronic data that was collected exclusively to detect threats from foreign actors. This is where the FISA Court abuses of illegal surveillance of American citizens starts to become exponential.
The DOJ/FBI illegal use of the NSA database is quantified within their own admissions to the FISA Court. Example below shows 85% of all search queries into the database are non-compliant:
♦ The last federal budget that flowed through the traditional budgetary process was signed into law in September of 2007 for fiscal year 2008 by George W. Bush. Every budget since then has been a fragmented process of continuing resolutions and individual spending bills.
Why does this matter? Because many people think defunding the Intelligence Community is a solution; it is not…. at least, not yet. Worse yet, the corrupt divisions deep inside the U.S. intelligence system can now fund themselves from multinational private sector partnerships (banks, corporations and foreign entities).
• When Democrats took over the House of Representatives in January 2007, they took office with a plan. Nancy Pelosi became Speaker, and Democrats controlled the Senate where Harry Reid was Majority Leader. Barack Obama was a junior senator from Illinois.
Pelosi and Reid intentionally did not advance a budget in 2008 (for fiscal year 2009) because their plan included installing Barack Obama (and all that came with him) with an open checkbook made even more lucrative by a worsening financial crisis and a process called baseline budgeting. Baseline budgeting means the prior fiscal year budget is accepted as the starting point for the next year budget. All previous expenditures are baked into the cake within baseline budgeting.
Massive bailouts preceded Obama’s installation due to U.S. economic collapse, and massive bailouts continued after his installation. This is the ‘never let a crisis go to waste’ aspect. TARP (Troubled Asset Recovery Program), auto bailouts (GM), and the massive stimulus spending bill, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA, ie. those shovel ready jobs) were all part of the non budget spending. The federal reserve assisted with Quantitative Easing (QE1 and QE2) as congress passed various Porkulous spending bills further spending and replacing the formal budget process.
Note: There has never been a budget passed in the normal/traditional process since September of 2007.
• While Obama’s radical ‘transformation‘ was triggered across a broad range of government institutions, simultaneously spending on the U.S. military was cut, but spending on the intelligence apparatus expanded. We were all distracted by Obamacare, and the Republican party wanted to keep us that way. However, in the background there was a process of transformation taking place that included very specific action by Eric Holder and targeted effort toward the newest executive agency the ODNI.
The people behind Obama, those same people now behind Joe Biden, knew from years of strategic planning that ‘radical transformation’ would require control over specific elements inside the U.S. government. Eric Holder played a key role in his position as U.S. Attorney General in the DOJ.
AG Holder recruited ideologically aligned political operatives who were aware of the larger institutional objectives.
One of those objectives was weaponizing the DOJ-National Security Division (DOJ-NSD) a division inside the DOJ that had no inspector general oversight. For most people the DOJ-NSD weaponization surfaced with a hindsight awakening of the DOJ-NSD targeting candidate Donald Trump many years later. However, by then the Holder crew had executed almost eight full years of background work.
• The second larger Obama/Holder objective was control over the FBI. Why was that important? Because the FBI does the domestic investigative work on anyone who needs or holds a security clearance. The removal of security clearances could be used as a filter to further build the internal ideological army they were assembling. Additionally, with new power in the ODNI created as a downstream consequence of the Patriot Act, new protocols for U.S. security clearances were easy to justify.
Carefully selecting fellow ideological travelers was facilitated by this filtration within the security clearance process. How does that issue later manifest? Just look around at how politicized every intelligence agency has become, specifically including the FBI.
• At the exact same time this new background security clearance process was ongoing, again everyone distracted by the fight over Obamacare, inside the Department of State (Secretary Hillary Clinton) a political alignment making room for the next phase was being assembled. Names like Samantha Power, Susan Rice and Hillary Clinton were familiar on television while Lisa Monaco worked as a legal liaison between the Obama White House and Clinton State Department.
Through the Dept of State (DoS) the intelligence apparatus began working on their first steps to align Big Tech with a larger domestic institutional objective. Those of you who remember the “Arab Spring”, some say “Islamist Spring”, will remember it was triggered by Barack Obama’s speech in Cairo – his first foreign trip. The State Department worked with grassroots organizers (mostly Muslim Brotherhood) in Egypt, Syria, Bahrain, Qatar and Libya. Obama leaned heavily on the organizational network of Turkish President Recep Erdogan for contacts and support.
Why does this aspect matter to us? Well, you might remember how much effort the Obama administration put into recruiting Facebook and Twitter as resources for the various mideast rebellions the White House and DoS supported. This was the point of modern merge between the U.S. intelligence community and Big Tech social media.
In many ways, the coordinated political outcomes in Libya and Egypt were the beta test for the coordinated domestic political outcomes we saw in the 2020 U.S. presidential election. The U.S. intelligence community working with social media platforms and political operatives.
Overlaying all of that background activity was also a new alignment of the Obama-era intelligence apparatus with ideological federal “contractors“. Where does this contractor activity manifest? In the FISA Court opinion of Rosemary Collyer who cited the “interagency memorandum of understanding”, or MOU.
Hopefully, you can see a small part of how tentacled the system to organize/weaponize the intelligence apparatus was. None of this was accidental, all of this was by design, and the United States Senate was responsible for intentionally allowing most of this to take place.
That’s the 30,000/ft level backdrop history of what was happening as the modern IC was created. Next, we will go into how all these various intelligence networks began working in unison and how they currently control all of the other DC institutions under them; including how they can carve out the President from knowing their activity.
♦ When Barack Obama was installed in January 2009, the Democrats held a 60-seat majority in the U.S. Senate. As the people behind the Obama installation began executing their longer-term plan, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence was a tool to create the Intelligence Branch; it was not an unintentional series of events.
When Obama was installed, Dianne Feinstein was the Chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI), and Democrat operative Dan Jones was her lead staffer. Feinstein was completely controlled by those around her including Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. The CIA was in the process of turning over personnel following the Bush era, and as a result of a massive multi-year narrative of diminished credibility (Iraq WMD), a deep purge was underway. Obama/Holder were in the process of shifting intelligence alignment and the intensely political Democrat Leader Harry Reid was a key participant.
THE TRAP – Many people say that Congress is the solution to eliminating the Fourth and superseding Branch of Government, the Intelligence Branch. This is an exercise in futility because the Legislative Branch, specifically the SSCI, facilitated the creation of the Intelligence Branch. The SSCI cannot put the genie they created back in the bottle without admitting they too are corrupt; and the background story of their corruption is way too intense to be exposed now.
Every member of the SSCI is compromised in some controlling manner. Those Senators who disliked the control over them; specifically disliked because the risk of sunlight was tenuous and, well, possible; have either left completely or stepped down from the committee. None of the SSCI members past or present would ever contemplate saying openly what their tenure involved.
[Note: You might remember when Vice Chairman Mark Warner’s text messages surfaced, there was a controlled Republican SSCI member who came to his defense in February of 2018. It was not accidental that exact Senator later became the chair of the SSCI himself. That Republican Senator is Marco Rubio, now vice-chair since the Senate re-flipped back to the optics of Democrat control in 2021.]
All of President Obama’s 2009 intelligence appointments required confirmation from the Senate. The nominees had to first pass through the Democrat controlled SSCI, and then to a full Senate vote where Democrats held a 60-vote majority. Essentially, Obama got everyone he wanted in place easily. Rahm Emmanuel was Obama’s Chief of Staff, and Valerie Jarrett was Senior Advisor.
Tim Geithner was Treasury Secretary in 2010 when the joint DOJ/FBI and IRS operation to target the Tea Party took place after the midterm “shellacking” caused by the Obamacare backlash.
Mitch McConnell was Minority Leader in the Senate but supported the targeting of the Tea Party as his Senate colleagues were getting primaried by an angry and effective grassroots campaign. McConnell’s friend, Senator Bob Bennett, getting beaten in Utah was the final straw.
Dirty Harry and Mitch McConnell saw the TEA Party through the same prism. The TEA Party took Kennedy’s seat in Massachusetts (Scott Brown); Sharon Angle was about to take out Harry Reid in Nevada; Arlen Spector was taken down in Pennsylvania; Senator Robert Byrd died; Senator Lisa Murkowski lost her primary to Joe Miller in Alaska; McConnell’s nominee Mike Castle lost to Christine O’Donnell in Delaware; Rand Paul won in Kentucky. This is the background. The peasants were revolting…. and visibly angry Mitch McConnell desperately made a deal with the devil to protect himself.
In many ways, the TEA Party movement was/is very similar to the MAGA movement. The difference in 2010 was the absence of a head of the movement, in 2015 Donald Trump became that head figure who benefited from the TEA Party energy. Trump came into office in 2017 with the same congressional opposition as the successful TEA Party candidates in 2011.
Republicans took control of the Senate following the 2014 mid-terms. Republicans took control of the SSCI in January 2015. Senator Richard Burr became chairman of the SSCI, and Dianne Feinstein shifted to Vice-Chair. Dirty Harry Reid left the Senate, and Mitch McConnell took power again.
Republicans were in control of the Senate Intelligence Committee in 2015 when the Intelligence Branch operation against candidate Donald Trump was underway. [Feinstein’s staffer, Dan Jones, left the SSCI so he could act as a liaison and political operative between private-sector efforts (Fusion GPS, Chris Steele) and the SSCI.] The SSCI was a participant in that Fusion-GPS/Chris Steele operation, and as a direct consequence Republicans were inherently tied to the problem with President Trump taking office in January of 2017. Indiana Republican Senator Dan Coats was a member of the SSCI.
Bottom line…. When it came to the intelligence system targeting Donald Trump during the 2015/2016 primary, the GOP was just as much at risk as their Democrat counterparts.
When Trump unexpectedly won the 2016 election, the SSCI was shocked more than most. They knew countermeasures would need to be deployed to protect themselves from any exposure of their intelligence conduct. Dianne Feinstein stepped down, and Senator Mark Warner was elevated to Vice Chairman.
Indiana’s own Mike Pence, now Vice President, recommended fellow Hoosier, SSCI Senator Dan Coats, to become President Trump’s Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). [Apply hindsight here]
• To give an idea of the Intelligence Branch power dynamic, remind yourself how House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), Chairman Devin Nunes, tried to get access to the DOJ/FBI records of the FISA application used against the Trump campaign via Carter Page.
Remember, Devin Nunes only saw a portion of the FISA trail from his review of a Presidential Daily Brief (PDB) previously given to President Obama. Chairman Nunes had to review the PDB at the White House SCIF due to compartmented intelligence, another example of the silo benefit.
Remember the massive stonewalling and blocking of the DOJ/FBI toward Nunes? Remember the back and forth battle over declassification surrounding the Nunes memo?
Remember, after Nunes went directly to House Speaker Paul Ryan for help (didn’t get any), the DOJ only permitted two members from each party within the HPSCI to review the documents, and only at the DOJ offices of main justice?
Contrast that amount of House Intel Committee railroading and blocking by intelligence operatives in the DOJ, DOJ-NSD and FBI, with the simple request by Senate Intelligence Vice Chairman Mark Warner asking to see the Carter Page FISA application and immediately a copy being delivered to him on March 17th, 2017.
Can you see which intelligence committee is aligned with the deepest part of the deep state?
Oh, how quickly we forget:
The contrast of ideological alignment between the House, Senate and Intelligence Branch is crystal clear when viewed through the prism of cooperation. You can see which legislative committee holds the power and support of the Intelligence Branch. The Senate Intel Committee facilitates the corrupt existence of the IC Branch, so the IC Branch only cooperates with the Senate Intel Committee. It really is that simple.
• The Intelligence Branch carefully selects its own members by controlling how security clearances are investigated and allowed (FBI). The Intelligence Branch also uses compartmentalization of intelligence as a way to keep each agency, and each downstream branch of government (executive, legislative and judicial), at arm’s length as a method to stop anyone from seeing the larger picture of their activity. I call this the “silo effect“, and it is done by design.
I have looked at stunned faces when I presented declassified silo product from one agency to the silo customers of another. You would be astonished at what they don’t know because it is not in their ‘silo’.
Through the advice and consent rules, the Intelligence Branch uses the SSCI to keep out people they consider dangerous to their ongoing operations.
Any appointee to the intelligence community must first pass through the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, before they get a full Senate vote. If the SSCI rejects the candidate, they simply refuse to take up the nomination. The president is then blocked from that appointment.
This is what happened with President Trump over-and-over again.
• Additionally, the Intelligence Branch protects itself, and its facilitating allies through the formal classification process. The Intelligence Branch gets to decide unilaterally what information will be released and what information will be kept secret.
There is no entity outside the Intelligence Branch, and yes that includes the President of the United States, who can supersede the classification authority of the Intelligence Branch. {Go Deep} and {Go Deep} This is something 99.9% of the people on our side get totally and frustratingly wrong.
No one can declassify, or make public, anything the Intelligence Branch will not agree to. Doubt this? Ask Ric Grenell, John Ratcliffe, or even President Trump himself.
• The classification process is determined inside the Intelligence Branch, all by themselves. They get to choose what rank of classification exists on any work-product they create; and they get to decide what the classification status is of any work product that is created by anyone else. The Intelligence Branch has full control over what is considered classified information and what is not. The Intelligence Branch defines what is a “national security interest” and what is not. A great technique for hiding fingerprints of corrupt and illegal activity.
[For familiar reference see the redactions to Lisa Page and Peter Strzok text messages. The Intelligence Branch does all redactions.]
• Similarly, the declassification process is a request by an agency, even a traditionally superior agency like the President of the United States, to the Intelligence Branch asking for them to release the information. The Intelligence Branch again holds full unilateral control. If the head of the CIA refuses to comply with the declassification instruction of the President, what can the president do except fire him/her? {Again, GO DEEP} How does the President replace the non-compliant cabinet member? They have to go through the SSCI confirmation. See the problem?
Yes, there are ways to break up the Intelligence Branch, but they do not start with any congressional effort. As you can see above, the process is the flaw – not the solution. Most conservative pundits have their emphasis on the wrong syllable. Their cornerstone is false.
For their own self-preservation, the Intelligence Branch has been interfering in our elections for years. The way to tear this apart begins with STATE LEVEL election reform that blocks the Legislative Branch from coordinating with the Intelligence Branch.
The extreme federalism approach is critical and also explains why Joe Biden has instructed Attorney General Merrick Garland to use the full power of the DOJ to stop state level election reform efforts. The worry of successful state level election control is also why the Intelligence Branch now needs to support the federal takeover of elections.
Our elections have been usurped by the Intelligence Branch. Start with honest elections and we will see just how much Democrat AND Republican corruption is dependent on manipulated election results. Start at the state level. Start there…. everything else is downstream.
♦ People want examples, reference points for work the Intelligence Branch conducts, specifically how it protects itself.
Here is an example: Julian Assange.
Yes, the history of the U.S. national security apparatus goes back decades; however, the weaponization of that apparatus, the creation of an apex branch of government, the Intelligence Branch, originated –as we currently feel it– under President Barack Obama.
Obama took the foundational tools created by Bill Clinton and George W. Bush and used the intelligence system architecture to create a weapon for use in his fundamental transformation. An alliance of ideologues within government (intel community) and the private sector (big tech and finance) was assembled, and the largest government weapon was created. Think about this every time you take your shoes off at an airport.
After the weapon was assembled and tested (Arab Spring), the Legislative Branch was enjoined under the auspices of a common enemy, Donald J. Trump, an outsider who was a risk to every entity in the institutional construct of Washington DC. Trillions were at stake, and years of affluence and influence were at risk as the unholy alliance was put together.
To understand the risk that Julian Assange represented to U.S. Intelligence Branch interests, it is important to understand just how extensive the operations of the FBI/CIA were in 2016.
It is within the network of foreign and domestic intel operations where Intelligence Branch political tool, FBI Agent Peter Strzok, was working as a bridge between the CIA and FBI counterintelligence operations.
By now, people are familiar with the construct of CIA operations involving Joseph Mifsud, the Maltese professor generally identified as a western intelligence operative who was tasked by the FBI/CIA to run an operation against Trump campaign official George Papadopoulos in both Italy (Rome) and London. {Go Deep}
In a similar fashion, the FBI tasked U.S. intelligence asset Stefan Halper to target another Trump campaign official, Carter Page. Under the auspices of being a Cambridge Professor, Stefan Halper also targeted General Michael Flynn. Additionally, using assistance from a female FBI agent under the false name Azra Turk, Halper also targeted Papadopoulos.
The initial operations to target Flynn, Papadopoulos and Page were all based overseas. This seemingly makes the CIA exploitation of the assets and the targets much easier.
HPSCI Ranking Member Devin Nunes outlined how very specific exculpatory evidence was known to the FBI and yet withheld from the FISA application used against Carter Page that also mentions George Papadopoulos. The FBI also fabricated information in the FISA.
However, there is an aspect to the domestic U.S. operation that also bears the fingerprints of the international intelligence apparatus; only this time, due to the restrictive laws on targets inside the U.S., the CIA aspect is less prominent. This is where FBI Agent Peter Strzok working for both agencies was important.
Remember, it’s clear in the text messages Strzok had a working relationship with what he called their “sister agency”, the CIA. Additionally, former CIA Director John Brennan has admitted Strzok helped write the January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) which outlines the Russia narrative; and Peter Strzok wrote the July 31st, 2016, “Electronic Communication” that originated FBI operation “Crossfire Hurricane.” Strzok immediately used that EC to travel to London to debrief allied intelligence officials connected to the Australian Ambassador to the U.K, Alexander Downer.
In short, Peter Strzok acted as a bridge between the CIA and the FBI. The perfect type of FBI career agent for the Intelligence Branch and CIA Director John Brennan to utilize.
Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson hired CIA Open Source analyst Nellie Ohr toward the end of 2015; at appropriately the same time as “FBI Contractors” were identified exploiting the NSA database and extracting information on a specific set of U.S. persons, the 2015 GOP candidates for President.
It was also Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson who was domestically tasked with a Russian lobbyist named Natalia Veselnitskaya. A little reported Russian Deputy Attorney General named Saak Albertovich Karapetyan was working double agents for the CIA and Kremlin. Karapetyan was directing the foreign operations of Natalia Veselnitskaya, and Glenn Simpson was organizing her inside the U.S.
Glenn Simpson managed Veselnitskaya through the 2016 Trump Tower meeting with Donald Trump Jr. However, once the CIA/Fusion-GPS operation using Veselnitskaya started to unravel with public reporting… back in Russia Deputy AG Karapetyan died in a helicopter crash.
Simultaneously timed in late 2015 through mid 2016, there was a domestic FBI operation using a young Russian named Maria Butina tasked to run up against republican presidential candidates. According to Patrick Byrne, Butina’s private sector handler [NOTE: remember, the public-private sector partnership], it was FBI agent Peter Strzok who was giving Patrick Byrne the instructions on where to send Butina. {Go Deep}
All of this context outlines the extent to which the FBI/CIA was openly involved in constructing a political operation that eventually settled upon anyone in candidate Donald Trump’s orbit. The international operations of the Intelligence Branch were directed by the FBI/CIA; and the domestic operations were coordinated by Peter Strzok operating with a foot in both agencies. [Strzok gets CIA service coin]
Recap: ♦Mifsud tasked against Papadopoulos (CIA). ♦Halper tasked against Flynn (CIA), Page (CIA), and Papadopoulos (CIA). ♦Azra Turk, pretending to be a Halper asst, tasked against Papadopoulos (FBI). ♦Veselnitskaya tasked against Donald Trump Jr (CIA, Fusion-GPS). ♦Butina tasked against Donald Trump Jr (FBI). All of these activities were coordinated.
Additionally, Christopher Steele was a British intelligence officer, hired by Fusion GPS to assemble and launder fraudulent intelligence information within his dossier. And we cannot forget Oleg Deripaska, a Russian oligarch, who was recruited by Asst. FBI Director Andrew McCabe to participate in running an operation against the Trump campaign and create the impression of Russian involvement. However, Deripaska refused to participate.
All of this foreign and domestic engagement was directly controlled by collaborating U.S. intelligence agencies from inside the Intelligence Branch. And all of this coordinated activity was intended to give a specific Russia influence/interference impression.
♦ The key point of all that background context is to see how committed the Intelligence Branch was to the constructed narrative of Russia interfering with the 2016 election. The CIA, FBI, and by extension the DOJ and DOJ-NSD, put a hell of a lot of work into it.
We also know that John Durham looked at the construct of the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA); and talked to CIA analysts who participated in the construct of the January 2017 report that bolstered the false appearance of Russian interference in the 2016 election. This is important because it ties into the next part that involves Julian Assange and Wikileaks.
On April 11th, 2019, the Julian Assange indictment was unsealed in the EDVA. From the indictment we discover it was under seal since March 6th, 2018:
On Tuesday April 15th more investigative material was released. Again, note the dates: Grand Jury, *December of 2017* This means FBI investigation prior to….
The FBI investigation took place prior to December 2017, and it was coordinated through the Eastern District of Virginia (EDVA) where Dana Boente was U.S. Attorney at the time. The grand jury indictment was sealed from March of 2018 until after Mueller completed his investigation, April 2019.
Why the delay?
What was the DOJ waiting for?
Here’s where it gets interesting….
The FBI submission to the Grand Jury in December of 2017 was four months after Congressman Dana Rohrabacher talked to Julian Assange in August of 2017: “Assange told a U.S. congressman … he can prove the leaked Democratic Party documents … did not come from Russia.”
(August 2017, The Hill Via John Solomon) Julian Assange told a U.S. congressman on Tuesday he can prove the leaked Democratic Party documents he published during last year’s election did not come from Russia and promised additional helpful information about the leaks in the near future.
Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, a California Republican who is friendly to Russia and chairs an important House subcommittee on Eurasia policy, became the first American congressman to meet with Assange during a three-hour private gathering at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, where the WikiLeaks founder has been holed up for years.
Rohrabacher recounted his conversation with Assange to The Hill.
“Our three-hour meeting covered a wide array of issues, including the WikiLeaks exposure of the DNC [Democratic National Committee] emails during last year’s presidential election,” Rohrabacher said, “Julian emphatically stated that the Russians were not involved in the hacking or disclosure of those emails.”
Pressed for more detail on the source of the documents, Rohrabacher said he had information to share privately with President Trump. (read more)
Knowing how much effort the Intelligence Branch put into the false Russia collusion-conspiracy narrative, it would make sense for the FBI to take keen interest after this August 2017 meeting between Rohrabacher and Assange, monitor all activity, and why the FBI would quickly gather specific evidence (related to Wikileaks and Bradley Manning) for a grand jury by December 2017.
Within three months of the EDVA grand jury, the DOJ generated an indictment and sealed it in March 2018.
The DOJ sat on the indictment while the Mueller/Weissmann probe was ongoing.
KEY POINT: The predicate for everything in the Trump-Russia narrative was that Russia hacked the DNC servers. The Robert Mueller special counsel would not have existed except for the justification of the DNC hack by Russia as a predicate reason for the entire “Russian Interference in the 2016 Election” narrative. The Trump-Russia narrative was the coverup tool for the surveillance and spying against Trump.
As soon as the Mueller/Weissmann probe ended, on April 11th, 2019, a planned and coordinated effort between the U.K. and U.S. was executed; Julian Assange was forcibly arrested and removed from the Ecuadorian embassy in London, and the EDVA indictment was unsealed (link).
As a person who has researched this fiasco; including the ridiculously false 2016 Russian hacking/interference narrative: “17 intelligence agencies”, Joint Analysis Report (JAR) needed for Obama’s anti-Russia narrative in December ’16; and then a month later the ridiculously political Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) in January ’17; this timing against Assange is too coincidental.
It doesn’t take a deep researcher to see the aligned Deep State motive to control Julian Assange. The Weissmann/Mueller report was dependent on Russia cybercrimes for justification, and that narrative was contingent on the Russia DNC hack story which Julian Assange disputes.
♦ This is critical. The Weissmann/Mueller report contains claims that Russia hacked the DNC servers as the central element to the Russia interference narrative in the U.S. election. This claim is directly disputed by WikiLeaks and Julian Assange, as outlined during the Dana Rohrabacher interview, and by Julian Assange on-the-record statements.
The predicate for Robert Mueller’s investigation was specifically due to Russian interference in the 2016 election.
The fulcrum for this Russia interference claim is the intelligence community assessment; and the only factual evidence claimed within the ICA is that Russia hacked the DNC servers; a claim only made possible by relying on forensic computer analysis from Crowdstrike, a DNC and FBI contractor.
The CIA holds a self-interest in upholding the Russian hacking claim; the FBI holds an interest in maintaining that claim; the U.S. media hold an interest in maintaining that claim. All of the foreign countries whose intelligence apparatus participated with Brennan and Strzok also have a self-interest in maintaining that Russia hacking and interference narrative.
Julian Assange is the only person with direct knowledge of how Wikileaks gained custody of the DNC emails; and Assange has claimed he has evidence it was not from a hack.
This “Russian hacking” claim was ultimately important to the CIA, FBI, DOJ, ODNI and U.K intelligence apparatus, it forms the corner of their justification. With that level of importance, well, right there is the obvious motive to shut Julian Assange down as soon as intelligence officials knew the Weissmann/Mueller report was going to be public.
…. and that’s exactly what they did. They threw a bag over Assange.
♦ COLLAPSED OVERSIGHT – The modern system to ‘check’ the Executive Branch was the creation of the legislative “Gang of Eight,” a legislative oversight mechanism intended to provide a bridge of oversight between the authority of the intelligence community within the Executive Branch.
The Go8 construct was designed to allow the President authority to carry out intelligence operations and provide the most sensitive notifications to a select group within Congress.
The Go8 oversight is directed to the position, not the person, and consists of: (1) The Speaker of the House; (2) The Minority Leader of the House; (3) The Chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, HPSCI; (4) The Ranking Member (minority) of the HPSCI; (5) The Leader of the Senate; (6) The Minority Leader of the Senate; (7) The Chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, SSCI; and finally (8) the Vice-Chair of the SSCI.
Example: When the Chief Executive (the President) initiates an intelligence operation on behalf of the United States, the President triggers a “finding memo.” In essence, the instruction to the intel agency or agencies to authorize a covert operation. When that process takes place, the Go8 are the first people notified. Depending on the sensitivity of the operation, sometimes the G08 are notified immediately after the operation is conducted. The notification can be a phone call or an in-person briefing.
Because of the sensitivity of their intelligence information, the Gang of Eight hold security clearances that permit them to receive and review all intelligence operations. The intelligence community are also responsible for briefing the Go8 with the same information they use to brief the President.
~ 2021 Gang of Eight ~
The Go8 design is intended to put intelligence oversight upon both political parties in Congress; it is designed that way by informing the minority leaders of both the House and Senate as well as the ranking minority members of the SSCI and HPSCI. Under the concept, the President cannot conduct an intelligence operation; and the intelligence community cannot carry out intelligence gathering operations without the majority and minority parties knowing about it.
The modern design of this oversight system was done to keep rogue and/or corrupt intelligence operations from happening. However, as we shared in the preview to this entire discussion, the process was usurped during the Obama era. {GO DEEP}
Former FBI Director James Comey openly admitted to Congress on March 20, 2017, that the FBI, FBI Counterintelligence Division, DOJ and DOJ-National Security Division, together with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) and the CIA, had been conducting independent investigations of Donald Trump for over a year without informing the Go8. Comey justified the lack of informing Go8 oversight by saying, “because of the sensitivity of the matter.”
Stupidly, Congress never pressed James Comey on that issue. The arrogance was astounding, and the acceptance by Congress was infuriating. However, that specific example highlighted just how politically corrupt the system had become. In essence, Team Obama usurped the entire design of congressional oversight…. and Congress just brushed it off.
Keep in mind, Comey did not say the White House was unaware; in fact he said exactly the opposite, he said, “The White House was informed through the National Security Council,” (the NSC). The very direct and specific implication; the unavoidable implication and James Comey admission that everyone just brushed aside, was that President Obama’s National Security Advisor, Susan Rice, was totally informed of the intelligence operation(s) against Donald Trump. After all, the NSC reports to the National Security Advisor.
That is why Susan Rice’s attorney could never allow her to appear before a congressional inquiry.
Look at that highlighted box from Susan Rice’s lawyer, Kathryn Ruemmler, and remember in his March 20, 2017, testimony Comey said, “The White House was informed through the National Security Council,” (the NSC).
FBI Director James Comey was protecting himself against the spygate surveillance of Trump, by leveraging his prior notification to the White House. Comey was signaling, ‘you cant get me for spying on Trump without getting Susan Rice and Barack Obama’, who knew about it.
Does the January 20, 2017, Susan Rice memo look different now?
Again, no one saw the immediate issue. What Comey just described on that March day in 2017 was the total usurpation of the entire reason the Gang of Eight exists; to eliminate the potential for political weaponization of the Intelligence Community by the executive branch.
The Gang of Eight notifications to the majority and minority of the legislative branch are specifically designed to make sure what James Comey admitted to doing was never supposed to happen.
Team Obama carried out a political operation using outside contractors and the intelligence community, and the checks-and-balances in the system were intentionally usurped. This is an indisputable fact, and a point highlighted by John Durham’s court filing:
Worse still, the entire legislative branch of Congress, which specifically includes the Republicans that now controlled the House and Senate, did nothing. They just ignored what was admitted to them. The usurpation was willfully ignored.
The mechanism of the G08 was bypassed without a twitch of condemnation or investigation…. because the common enemy was Donald Trump.
This example highlights the collapse of the system. Obama, the executive branch, collapsed the system by usurping the process; in essence the process became the bigger issue, and the lack of immediate legislative branch reaction became evidence of open acceptance.
The outcomes of the usurpation played out over the next four years, Donald J. Trump was kneecapped and lost his presidency because of it. However, the bigger issue of the collapse still exists.
The downstream consequence of the Legislative Branch accepting the Executive Branch usurpation meant both intelligence committees were compromised. Additionally, the leadership of both the House and Senate were complicit. Think about this carefully. The Legislative Branch allowance of the intelligence usurpation meant the Legislative Branch was now subservient to the Intelligence Branch.
That’s where we are.
Right now.
That’s where we are.
Term-3 Obama is now back in the White House with Joe Biden.
Term-1 and Term-2 Obama usurped the ‘check and balance‘ within the system and weaponized the intelligence apparatus. During Trump’s term that weaponization was covered up by a compliant congress, and not a single member of the oversight called it out. Now, Term-3 Obama steps back in to continue the cover up and continue the weaponization.
Hopefully, you can now see the scale of the problem that surrounds us with specific citation for what has taken place. What I just explained to you above is not conspiracy theory, it is admitted fact that anyone can look upon. Yet….
Have you seen this mentioned anywhere?
Have you seen this called out by anyone in Congress?
Have you seen anyone in media (ally or adversary) call this out? Have you seen any member of the Judicial Branch stand up and say wait, what is taking place is not okay? Have you seen a single candidate for elected office point this out? Have you seen anyone advising a candidate to point this out?
This is our current status. It is not deniable. The truth exists regardless of our comfort.
Not a single person in power will say openly what has taken place. They are scared of the Fourth Branch. The evidence of what has taken place is right there in front of our face. The words, actions and activities of those who participated in this process are not deniable.
There are only two members of the Gang of Eight who have existed in place from January 2007 (the real beginning of Obama’s term, two years before he took office when the Congress flipped).
Only two members of the G08 have been consistently in place from January of 2007 to right now, today. All the others came and went, but two members of the Gang of Eight have been part of that failed and collapsed oversight throughout the past 15 years, Nancy Pelosi and Mitch McConnell.
♦ TECHNOLOGY – On a global scale – the modern intelligence gathering networks are now dependent on data collection to execute their intelligence missions. In the digital age nations have been executing various methods to gather that data. Digital surveillance has replaced other methods of interception. Those surveillance efforts have resulted in a coalescing of regional data networks based on historic multi-national relationships.
We have a recent frame of reference for the “U.S. data collection network” within the NSA. Through the allied process the Five Eyes nations all rely on the NSA surveillance database (U.K, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and U.S.) The NSA database provides the digital baseline for intelligence operations in defense of our allies. The portals into the NSA database are essentially an assembly of allies in like-minded ideological connection to the United States.
Unfortunately, there have been some revelations about the NSA database being used to monitor our allies, like in the example of Germany and surveillance on Angela Merkel’s phone. As long as “the good guys” are operating honorably, allies of the United States can feel confident about having protection from the NSA surveillance of global digital data. We warn our friends if we detect something dangerous etc.
The U.S. has nodes on communication pipelines to intercept and extract data. We have also launched hundreds, perhaps thousands, of satellites to conduct surveillance and gather up data. All of this data is fed into the NSA database where it is monitored (presumably) as a national security mechanism, and in defense of our allies.
However, what about data collection or data networks that are outside the NSA database? What do our enemies do? The NSA database is just one intelligence operation of digital surveillance amid the entire world, and we do not allow access by adversaries we are monitoring. So what do they do? What do our allies do who might not trust the United States due to past inconsistencies, ie. the Middle East?
The answers to those questions highlight other data collection networks. So a brief review of the major players is needed.
♦ CHINA – China operates their own database. They, like the NSA, scoop up data for their system. Like us, China launches satellites and deploys other electronic data collection methods to download into their database. This is why the issues of electronic devices manufactured in China becomes problematic. Part of the Chinese data collection system involves the use of spyware, hacking and extraction.
Issues with Chinese communication company Huawei take on an added dimension when you consider the goal of the Chinese government to conduct surveillance and assemble a network of data to compete with the United States via the NSA. Other Chinese methods of surveillance and data-collection are less subversive, as in the examples of TicTok and WeChat. These are Chinese social media companies that are scraping data just like the NSA scrapes data from Facebook, Twitter and other Silicon Valley tech companies. [ Remember, the Intelligence Branch is a public-private partnership. ]
♦ RUSSIA – It is very likely that Russia operates their own database. We know Russia launches satellites, just like China and the USA, for the same purposes. Russia is also very proficient at hacking into other databases and extracting information to store and utilize in their own network. The difference between the U.S., China and Russia is likely that Russia spends more time on the hacking aspect because they do not generate actual technology systems as rapidly as the U.S. and China.
The most recent database creation is an outcome of an ally having to take action because they cannot rely on the ideology of the United States remaining consistent, as the administrations ping-pong based on ideology.
♦ SAUDI ARABIA – Yes, in 2016 we discovered that Saudi Arabia was now operating their own intelligence data-gathering operation. It would make sense, given the nature of the Middle East and the constant fluctuations in political support from the United States. It is a lesson the allied Arab community and Gulf Cooperation Council learned quickly when President Obama went to Cairo in 2009 and launched the Islamist Spring (Arab Spring) upon them.
I have no doubt the creation of the Saudi intelligence network was specifically because the Obama administration started supporting radical Islamists within the Muslim Brotherhood and threw fuel on the fires of extremism all over the Arab world.
Think about it., What would you do if you were Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain, Kuwait, the UAE, Jordan, Oman or Yemen and you knew the United States could just trigger an internal uprising of al-Qaeda, ISIS and the political arm of the Muslim Brotherhood to seek your destruction?
Without a doubt, those urgent lessons from 2009, 2010, 2011 triggered the formation of the Arab Intelligence Network as a network to defend itself with consistency. They assembled the network and activated it in 2017 as pictured above.
♦ Israel – Along a similar outlook to the Arab network, no doubt Israel operates an independent data collection system as a method of protecting itself from ever-changing U.S. politics amid a region that is extremely hostile to its very existence. Like the others, Israel launches proprietary satellites, and we can be sure they use covert methods to gather electronic data just like the U.S. and China.
As we have recently seen in the Pegasus story, Israel creates spyware programs that are able to track and monitor cell phone communications of targets. The spyware would not work unless Israel had access to some network where the phone meta-data was actually stored. So yeah, it makes sense for Israel to operate an independent intelligence database.
♦ Summary: As we understand the United States Intelligence Branch of government as the superseding entity that controls the internal politics of our nation, we also must consider that multiple nations have the same issue. There are major intelligence networks around the world beside the NSA “Five-Eyes” database. China, Russia, Saudi Arabia and Israel all operate proprietary databases deploying the same tools and techniques for assembly.
The geopolitical conflict that has always existed has now shifted into a digital battlespace. The Intelligence Agencies from these regions are now operating as the backbone of the government that uses them and has become dependent on them. [<- Reread that].
Once you accept the digital-era intelligence apparatus of China, Russia, Saudi-Arabia, The United States and Israel, are now the primary national security mechanisms for stabilization of government; then you accept the importance of those intelligence operations.
Once you understand how foundational those modern intelligence operations have become for the stability and continuity of those governments…… then you begin to understand just how the United States intelligence community became more important than the government that created it.
♦ Public Private Partnership – The modern Fourth Branch of Government is only possible because of a Public-Private partnership with the intelligence apparatus. You do not have to take my word for it, the partnership is so brazened they have made public admissions.
The biggest names in Big Tech announced in June their partnership with the Five Eyes intelligence network, ultimately controlled by the NSA, to: (1) monitor all activity in their platforms; (2) identify extremist content; (3) look for expressions of Domestic Violent Extremism (DVE); and then, (4) put the content details into a database where the Five Eyes intelligence agencies (U.K., U.S., Australia, Canada, New Zealand) can access it.
Facebook, Twitter, Google and Microsoft are all partnering with the intelligence apparatus. It might be difficult to fathom how openly they admit this, but they do. Look at this sentence in the press release (emphasis mine):
[…] “The Group will use lists from intelligence-sharing group Five Eyes adding URLs and PDFs from more groups, including the Proud Boys, the Three Percenters and neo-Nazis.”
Think about that sentence structure very carefully. They are “adding to” the preexisting list…. admitting the group (aka Big Tech) already have access to the the intelligence-sharing database… and also admitting there is a preexisting list created by the Five Eyes consortium.
Obviously, who and what is defined as “extremist content” will be determined by the Big Tech insiders themselves. This provides a gateway, another plausible deniability aspect, to cover the Intelligence Branch from any oversight.
When the Intelligence Branch within government wants to conduct surveillance and monitor American citizens, they run up against problems due to the Constitution of the United States. They get around those legal limitations by sub-contracting the intelligence gathering, the actual data mining, and allowing outside parties (contractors) to have access to the central database.
The government cannot conduct electronic searches (4th amendment issue) without a warrant; however, private individuals can search and report back as long as they have access. What is being admitted is exactly that preexisting partnership. The difference is that Big Tech will flag the content from within their platforms, and now a secondary database filled with the extracted information will be provided openly for the Intelligence Branch to exploit.
The volume of metadata captured by the NSA has always been a problem because of the filters needed to make the targeting useful. There is a lot of noise in collecting all data that makes the parts you really want to identify more difficult to capture. This new admission puts a new massive filtration system in the metadata that circumvents any privacy protections for individuals.
Previously, the Intelligence Branch worked around the constitutional and unlawful search issue by using resources that were not in the United States. A domestic U.S. agency, working on behalf of the U.S. government, cannot listen on your calls without a warrant. However, if the U.S. agency sub-contracts to say a Canadian group, or foreign ally, the privacy invasion is no longer legally restricted by U.S. law.
What was announced in June 2021 is an alarming admission of a prior relationship along with open intent to define their domestic political opposition as extremists.
July 26 (Reuters) – A counterterrorism organization formed by some of the biggest U.S. tech companies including Facebook (FB.O) and Microsoft (MSFT.O) is significantly expanding the types of extremist content shared between firms in a key database, aiming to crack down on material from white supremacists and far-right militias, the group told Reuters.
Until now, the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism’s (GIFCT) database has focused on videos and images from terrorist groups on a United Nations list and so has largely consisted of content from Islamist extremist organizations such as Islamic State, al Qaeda and the Taliban.
Over the next few months, the group will add attacker manifestos – often shared by sympathizers after white supremacist violence – and other publications and links flagged by U.N. initiative Tech Against Terrorism. It will use lists from intelligence-sharing group Five Eyes, adding URLs and PDFs from more groups, including the Proud Boys, the Three Percenters and neo-Nazis.
The firms, which include Twitter (TWTR.N) and Alphabet Inc’s (GOOGL.O) YouTube, share “hashes,” unique numerical representations of original pieces of content that have been removed from their services. Other platforms use these to identify the same content on their own sites in order to review or remove it. (read more)
The influence of the Intelligence Branch now reaches into our lives, our personal lives. In the decades before 9/11/01 the intelligence apparatus intersected with government, influenced government, and undoubtedly controlled many institutions with it. The legislative oversight function was weak and growing weaker, but it still existed and could have been used to keep the IC in check. However, after the events of 9/11/01, the short-sighted legislative reactions opened the door to allow the surveillance state to weaponize.
After the Patriot Act was triggered, not coincidentally only six weeks after 9/11, a slow and dangerous fuse was lit that ends with the intelligence apparatus being granted a massive amount of power. The problem with assembled power is always what happens when a Machiavellian network takes control over that power and begins the process to weaponize the tools for their own malicious benefit. That is exactly what the installation of Barack Obama was all about.
The Obama network took pre-assembled intelligence weapons we should never have allowed to be created and turned those weapons into tools for his radical and fundamental change. The target was the essential fabric of our nation. Ultimately, this corrupt political process gave power to create the Fourth Branch of Government, the Intelligence Branch. From that perspective the fundamental change was successful.
Last point, they all knew. Every person in the DC system, regardless of where they are located in their containment silos, knew what had taken place. They all knew. No one in DC did not know. This is the very reason why both parties desperately needed to get Andrew Weissmann and Robert Mueller installed.
The 2017 special counsel, under the guise of a Trump-Russia investigation, WAS THE COVER UP plan. The intent of the special counsel was to protect all the inside and outside agents across all branches who has been working together against Trump throughout his candidacy and into his presidency. Not a single elected DC politician did not know this was the intent.
♦ WHAT NOW? There is a way to stop and deconstruct the Intelligence Branch, but it requires some outside-the-box thinking and reliance on the Constitution as a tool to radically change one element within government. In the interim, we must remain focused on the three tiers that we need for success.
• Tier One is “tactical civics” at a local level. Engaged and active citizen participation at the community, city, town and hamlet level of society. This is what might be described as grassroots level, school board level; city council level; county commissioner level.
• Tier Two is “extreme federalism” at a state level. Engaged and active citizen participation through your State House and State Senate representative. This is state level assembly and action demands upon the State House, State Senate and State Governor.
• Tier Three the challenge of “federal offices” on a national level. This is where CTH outlines a singular action that can be taken upstream that allows the first two tiers to retake control over federal offices. This is where we throw the One Ring into the fire of Mordor. {Go Deep}
I am confident that ultimately “We The People” will win. How we can execute the “One Ring” solution is more challenging; in the interim, tactical civics and extreme federalism are doable right now, in this next 2022 election cycle.

But why are they trying to kill them with the toxic shots.
Only Heritage Americans, the replacement invading criminals are not required.
The “educators” (bureaucrats running education who rarely were in a classroom,) today are interested in 3 things:

Ever take note that children are taken by guerrilla groups and taught be killers? It happens in South American and African countries, probably the Middle East as well.
It isn’t for your benefit or your child’s.
Back in 2007 I saw a pbs documentary showing how china takes children into 24/7 childcare at pre-school age and keep them all week while the parents work. The children are allowed to go home with their parents on weekends and holidays.
As I understood it, it was not optional.
It was disturbing.
“It happens in South American and African countries, probably the Middle East as well”
Well now it happens in America too
“History provided enough warnings from Dwight D. Eisenhower [and the Founding Fathers] (military) to John F. Kennedy [and Harry Truman] (CIA), to Richard Nixon (FBI)”
And yet some still persist in idolizing the military.
There is plenty of honor in the ones who bleed…
Its the upper scum that don’t bleed and ride the brown nose train that are the worst.
Given all the Dark Ages Wokeness and Cockamamie Racist Theology and demanded mRNA Injections and looking for White Supremacist under every bed and in every closet and getting into stupid wars and Trump hating Generals, who would still join or ‘re-up’ in the US Military.
I wouldn’t.
If you’re not a cultural marxist, they don’t want you.

And also TYFYS.
Methinks you speak of General Milley.
Well said brother.
“So our security and liberty may prosper together.”
Ike presented the warning you mentioned but he also presented the “balance” that he charged the citizens to maintain to protect the country he loved and served so honorably.
Most Americans honor their fellow citizens who served in the military and in some cases gave their all. All honest Americans have nothing but distain for those who bring dishonor to their uniforms.
Give credit where credit is due.
Sundance mention Dwight D. Eisenhower and his warnings. I just picked up on it.
Understood. Ike was right, he just wanted to make sure we didn’t throw the baby out with the bathwater because he had just overseen the destruction of countries who lost their wars.
Have a good evening.

What they didn’t realise is the slave class was a lot more intelligent than what they had led themselves to believe.
To late hahaha ! The Jeanine was already out of the bottle and couldn’t be put back.
So onward they pushed, except this time they are forced to expose themselves to continue their agenda.
Patriots now “have em on the run” they know it, we know it, and they know we know that they know it.

Glad to see you sir. You ever watch “Snowden”? Worth the watch. Slainte friend
Like Lt Col Vindman, that pasty faced POS.
We lived through both of this terms and we all liked Ike and was proud that he was a Texan.
He was born in 1890 in Denison, Texas.
It’s like, “0bama didn’t create 0bama-phones, he just increased the scale of the previously established gubmint program by several orders of magnitude (at taxpayer expense) to increase Democrat political power.”
“The Surveillance and Political Spying Operations Highlighted by John Durham Today are the TIP of the Iceberg.” Of that, I am certain.
What happens now? We can’t unsee this.
What happens now is Turtle get’s “re-elected” most likely, or retires, and sees to it, his political progeny is “elected”.
For some reason I don’t believe it is how it will go.
i DO NET BELIEVE turtle will be here before nov…he will resign….he is toooooo much corrupt…
Remember the days after figuring out that 2 planes can’t take down 3 buildings and was freaking out a little bit. Eventually acknowledged and moved on because, what’s the alternative? Tried talking about it, which didn’t go well.
I would make an educated guess and say your before mentioned Senators like Foam Boy Rubio knew and said nothing because they are blackmailed? Other reason would be they were active participants in a conspiracy? Feel free to add some educated “guesses” as to why they would go along.
yep
CTH outlined this.

I think NSA has something on most everyone in DC. Why else would they act the way they do.
Not just in D.C. It would extend down to the state level too. If you think Federal level GOP reps are feckless and/or complicit, there are plenty of those on the state level. It is quite alarming. Ron Paul was right about the dangers of a surveillance state. But no one listened at the time.
As someone who was in the data sourcing and aggregation business, I could have made most people look or feel bad just based on certain internet page clicks and session times. It’s hard to fathom what the government has and could use on virtually everyone of us.
They saw nothing. They heard nothing. They knew nothing. They were not there. They did not even get up any morning any of this happened!
Well, they did get up a few times, but that was only to collect their bribes.
Knowingly.
if they cant recall, we can.
They, in DC, all knew, we, at CTH, all know, but the general public doesn’t know.
“Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools (like Democrats and RINOs) whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty (to the DC Swamp Uniparty).”
― Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism
And Pence was right in the middle of it all
He was the high level Stuxnet forced/planted on the Trump Team
I watch a Kellyanne Conway delivery to YAF in Atlanta…I was already tentative after her commie husband was allowed by her to run amok while she was Press Secretary, but when she said VP Traitor was a “good man” who had accomplished much side by side w PDJT I had to turn it off
Trump was completely surrounded by traitors and fools. I liked Conway, and that little blond press secretary as well. I guess I can’t blame Trump for being fooled.
Amazing piece Sundance I wish I could commit it to memory. I’m gonna have to reread this about 4 more times.
Trump knew and tried to tell everyone. Only voters/his base believed him or if they did believe him they were too corrupt or complicit to take appropriate actions.
Leslie Stahl moment via Dan Scavino’s twitter… I remember it like it was yesterday.

We need Chicxulub II. And it needs to have a surprise landing so these shit-stains that govern us cannot prepare for it.
Bush was rendered weak by the Gore refusal to accept the 2000 election result and the Dem mantra that he was selected, not elected.
After September 11 he chose the path of least resistance to set up DHS and pass the Patriot Act because it was a feel good exercise that bought him some acceptance from the toxic Dems.
More is the pity…
I believe he was far more complicit.
His father was the 11th See-Eye-Aye director. It is quite a coincidence his son’s administration constructed the framework for the intelligence state outlined above.
While that may be conjecture his behavior after leaving office, particularly his O-bromance, leaves little doubt about his alignment with Uniparty politics.
And his Vice-President’s daughter is Liz Cheney. That alone should say enough.
.
GW took his orders from his CIA daddy and daddy’s guy Dick Cheney.
And let us not forget that Judge Kavanaugh was an architect for the Patriot Act.
And a Vince Foster fixer.
Thank you Sundance. I think it took me almost an hour to read this post, so I don’t imagine you haven’t been working
on it for awhile. Thank you for your incredible work.
Have started to imagine what it would be like in the future if what you wrote here about the 4th branch of government were taught in some form or fashion in schools? Instead of CRT? Imagine all the people knowing of this. I dream.
EVERYONE !
Go to that Ratcliffe tweet … you MUST read some of the replies
Many GOP stalwarts are trumpeting the egregiousness of the crime (“They spied on Trump!” “Crime of the century!”) … some of them the same scoundrels who knew at the time (ex: Kevin McCarthy)
Hey, consolation is that it’s now being said out loud … by many
Thx for the pointer to that, Sundance, it’s incredibly illuminating beyond just the part that shows on this page
Watching Mitch McConnell genuflect in support of Democrat and Deep State lies has been revolting. DC fearing Trump because he deserves 4 more years.
It is not about what Trump deserves. It is what Trump has proven and earned.
Difference without a distinction, but nice to emphasize what Trump has achieved despite being out gunned.
At the top of the list are pride and a lying tongue. When a man is prideful he makes decisions that are only for his self interest not for the good of those he is to serve. If lies and false are a part of his character it indicates a flaw that will not give him the title of a “man of truth.” The lies a man tells to serve his lust for control, power and self-gain does not deserve to be anything near being a leader. The extent and numbers of those who want Trump to disappear is telling in itself.
Justice demands it.
McConnell is a rat bastard but I still think flowergirl Graham’s drama before the Senate on the J6 democrat op was the silliest act I ever saw a supposed man do in front of congress. He made Barney bologna smoker Frank look like the Hulk.
From reading this history of how the Fourth Branch evolved, I saw something which triggered a question:
“. . . it was FBI agent Peter Strzok who was giving Patrick Byrne the instructions on where to send Butina.”
Could it be that Patrick Byrne is simply a “useful idiot” for the Deep State, and is someone who we in the MAGA Movement cannot trust? Why was he so involved with Sidney Powell and General Flynn after the 2020 election in trying to advise Trump? Should Trump trust Patrick Byrne?
Good question.
what has Byne done for America in a positive sense?
For those who are fans of cryptocurrency, Byrne was the CEO of one of the early crypto companies.
okay. time will tell.
I’d like to expand on your very specific question as it demonstrates greater issues with trust. The 4th branch has no restraint on what it will do. It was born to defeat the constraints of the constitution. Since these agents of malice are likely planted within Trump’s circle, who can he trust? What should be his litmus test for trust? Who can we patriots trust? What should be our test? Gangs initiate new members by horrific acts of rape or murder to ensure the new member is true to their twisted code. What are Deep State agents unwilling to do that could be used against them?
The breath of corruption and lawlessness seems to vast to overcome – These people make China look like a viable option.
Amazing how a do nothing, no nothing, law school professor and hack politician from Illinois could accomplish all this. Seems like there is more to it.
Obama is a product of the CIA, from what I understand, and he was “chosen” by globalist organizations like the CFR and possibly WEF to become the US President. Those “puppet masters” guided him in the process of weaponizing the Fourth Branch. He likely wasn’t the overall mastermind, but he had been a devoted and studied disciple of Alinsky and Bill Ayers and knew how to create chaos and exploit it. He was good at implementing what his “puppet masters” wanted.
And they created his fake family and fake background. They were attempting this with Kushner’s puppet the fake family Governor Jim McGreevey from NJ. But he started to get extorted by a gay from another country who Kushner set him up with. To McGreevey’s credit he revealed himself and destroyed the fake image that was being created by the NJ Democrat marxists as they were grooming him for the Presidency. They than ‘found’ the gay obozo and began recreating another puppet. This fraud than made it to the Presidency
Something like that has to be it – Obama a useful idiot does makes sense. Would be interesting to ID the ‘puppet masters’ – I wonder now if ‘Obama’ was an American operation or much greater. Perhaps like you say the ‘Obama’ was a CIA project. I do remember Reid’s famous quote how he admired how the project ‘Obama’ was basically a chimera.
Check out IPOTs series of the Weathermen; will give you background on Bill Ayers Contribution dating back to the 60s radical movement .
The Kenyan’s maternal grandfather worked for a bank known as a CIA front. He’s CIA.
I always knew that zero was a fraud.
Biggest tell for me initially was the dripping inauthenticity I picked up on from day 1.
And since then, finding out more of the odd details of his supposed past just screamed that he was “groomed”.
A Constitutional law expert and law school professor who never tried a single case in court. Imagine that!
I’d love to see his school records. I doubt he even went to Columbia.
They all knew.
They were all in on it.
And they still are.

Hi Ma’am. Man In America on YT also does it with his add ons. Its very well done and very believable.
I’m wondering why most of us left Twitter, but now we are supposed to join again? I hate reading Tweets in which the Dems are slandering Melania…..I have usually been good at avoiding left-speak rags, and Twitter is one of them.
Many are already involved locally. I think this has been a year old pitch, at least.
I am just curious….why do you always open with that line….do you believe it offers you credence or authenticity or do you really need to establish some form of bona fides every time you comment?….it makes SENSE when it is relevant but you use it for every comment
Retired Magistrate here: Because that is what I did and I am proud of the job I did. It wasn’t easy and there were many times that I could have compromised to keep everyone happy. However, that was not my job. My job was to apply the law along with the facts and come to a good legal conclusion, no matter if I upset anyone or not.
Thank you for asking.
Thanks Marcia. Your post are always helpful.
The msm is ignoring this, and when they do mention it, it will be dismissive.
Sundance – America thanks you for your reporting.
Top shelf writing and investigative work. One of the best of our time.
If they would spy on a president in 2016/2017 then what the Registered Hammer Whistleblower said back in 2015 seems totally believable when he said this………
“I produced 600 million pages. If you printed out each page it would be thirty miles high stacked one on top of another. The information is very sensitive information.
They collected google searches, credit cards, phone retcords, images, pictures, anything and everything, and they did it for one reason: LEVERAGE.
They didn’t know when, but they knew sooner or later they would need that information to use for those leverage against a person … The amount of information is mind-boggling, and I gave all of that to FBI Director’s office.”
The key word here……….
LEVERAGE!
look at what they are doing to Joe Rogan totry and destroy him – and he is not a president. Look at all those who are censored/blocked etal .. what do they all have in common?
Why do we need Durham to gather for the historical record when we have Sundance and this?
He goes so much deeper to connect the dots than Durham most likely will ever do.
Can he just file everything he has with the National Archives?
Nothing better anywhere!
“Before mass leaders seize the power to fit reality to their lies, their propaganda is marked by its extreme contempt for facts as such, for in their opinion fact depends entirely on the power of man who can fabricate it.”
― Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism
”For their own self-preservation, the Intelligence Branch has been interfering in our elections for years. The way to tear this apart begins with STATE LEVEL election reform that blocks the Legislative Branch from coordinating with the Intelligence Branch.”
This is the most comprehensive analysis I have ever read. Enlightening, even to an old know it all like me.
My money is on Trump! We wait, we watch. It aint over till the fat lady sings, the fat lady is Killary.
Earlier this week, in a clearly orchestrated endeavor, Hillary’s name was thrown out there as a challenger to President pudding 2024. Perhaps today’s news was dropped as a warning shot? I am just spit balling here, but nothing surprises me with these people who believe they are entitled to be POTUS, never mind what the voters want.
its definitely a swamp war. where they decide who is president and not us. if Biden can be President then anyone can
I think it might be the other way around.
I think she knew this was coming and made a preemptive announcement about a candidacy because it would provide legal protection from prosecution.
I hope any and all media co-conspirators are swept up in this.
it should read Sundance was right about everything
Sundance has a better batting average !
“I can’t in good conscience allow the U.S. government to destroy privacy, internet freedom and basic liberties for people around the world with this massive surveillance machine they’re secretly building.” Edward Snowden
ever hear about what woke him up to not whistblow the standard path?
‘his assignment was monitoring someone, he later found was a whistleblower’
I’ve got one massive headache. The information contained in this Eye Popping Article is beyond acceptable. History must not be kind to all the pos /players responsible.
And, oh yes…
Let’s Go Brandon!!!!
All the major global events transpiring today are in some way a direct result of this coup that took place in the USA.
Trump would have said no to the mandates and thus the rest of the world too. covid hoax would have ended a year ago, no broke back better, no great reset, etc….
and so those who know, must now be persecuted to protect the cabal from the death penalty
I couldn’t agree more, MP.
President Trump had peace breaking out all over the world, China was being dealt with well, every war they tried to embroil him in he deftly refused, manufacturing was returning thus monies abroad, American hostages were being released everywhere, Iran was collapsing under the sanctions and we were energy independent and exporting surplus.
I really miss winning.
PDJT had the winning platform. He even found that magic wand that the Mullah-fraud-in chief-Obozo said would be needed to bring the jobs back that he and his fellow fascist CFR comrades, Clinton & Bush treasonously shipped out
obviously then there is a back door channel to FJB to opinko…
How do you ‘impeach’ a corpse that is in the White House illegally?
get the one running the WH behind the corpse
You don’t, you bury it.
This could be the door of all doors. This closet is full of roaches. It really is going to be a flood.
Clinton Foundation. Unspeakable crime.
So former Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, met with Julian Assange. He reported that – Julian claims Russia did not hack the DNC emails. End of story, Assange remains a target to silence, imprison and discredit.
Prior to and subsequently, Dana was smeared in the media as pro Russian, pro populist and pro Trump . He lost his bid for re election in 2018.
I last read that Rohrabacher attended J6 rally. And has stated that there were agent provocateurs at the Capital on J6. He remains a Trump loyalist.
As Sundance posted in his twitter feed ~ they all knew Trump was innocent.
So Rohrabacher was and is Trump’s only ally in DC
Somebody, please prove me wrong.
This is mind boggling stuff.
Thank you Sundance.
add Nunes.
Thank you, WhiteBoard, I totally agree.
its sick that he can count his allies on one hand right? our country has been betrayed by its representation
FUBAR !
Watch the movie “Snowden” for added info to Sundance’s outstanding investigative work. Stuxnet
Hey, Colkitto
Thanks for the info.
Cheers friend!
Ratcliffe provided documents to Durham – and documents on the election also to Everyone in the know.
Except, apparently they WEREN’T ready. The stolen election is the proof.
our systems had a snake put at the head of each entity.
evidence pushed up then stopped.
Or a Stuxnet. Mike Pence for the Trump inner circle. James Comey FBI, John prayer mat Brennan CIA, James Clapper DNI, Mitch McConnell & upchuck Schumer Senate, Pelosi/Ryran/McCarthy House etc etc
Evidence conveniently siloed.
I vividly recall my dismay when Sundance said how little these people knew of the big picture. Things I knew mostly from Sundance and a few gut feelings.
Every fiber of my being rebelled at the thought of the manifest lack of curiousness in the face of such rank lawlessness.
It is so dammed unAmerican!
Then I reminded myself of the interactions I’ve had with bureaucracies and their inhabitants.
How they suck ingenuity, perseverance and pride from all work endeavors. The goal is self-preservation and advancement not on merit or hard work.
“We will America proud again”, I miss you, President Trump.
China interfered in the 2020 elections according to Ratcliffe
The media won’t touch this Durham revelation. Trump must remain a suspicious unstable figure that’s under suspicion constantly. We need to hit back at the media. The people need to know the truth.
Sundance, it just makes me sick to know I voted for George W. Bush the second time around given that there were enough clues in hand by 2004 to know that he was not an honest conservative … that he was protecting the Clintons and other nefarious democrats who are still causing trouble today. I should have known that when in 2001 Bush did NOTHING about the Riady Non-Refund.
Recall that after Bush took the oath of office, Indonesian Billionaire James Riady pled guilty to providing millions of dollars in illegal campaign funds to Clinton and the DNC. With that money they tampered with the election process in 1996 … a warning for what was to come. As part of the plea agreement, Riady stood in front of a judge in a California courtroom and told the judge (under the requirement that he tell the truth or lose the deal) that contrary to what Clinton and the DNC had publicly stated, the illegal funds had NOT been returned to him. The judge asked the prosecuting attorney if this was true and the attorney said “yes”.
And then nothing happened. There was never one more word about the matter by Bush’s DOJ or the FBI. And of course the liberal mainstream media completely ignored this too. It was clear then that needed a Republican candidate who would not let that happen in 2004 … who would impartially enforce all our laws. It was a missed opportunity … a chance to clean house at the FBI, DOJ, IRS, and all the other alphabet agencies before it was too late. And it’s now too late.
I, like you, Sundance, think all of this will go nowhere. We get one more chance to put Trump in the Oval Office, but as events are showing, the hold of the UNIPARTY on nearly every institution in the US, including the Republican Party, is now so strong that may never happen. And they have mostly gotten away with massive election fraud so they’ll do it again.
And if polls or other observations suggest election fraud won’t be enough to counter the disaster of Biden, they may well do what you fear … say Trump can’t run again and dare the American people to rise up and stop them. And I fear they won’t.
putting Trump in office again will not solve anything (though I am totally in favor of it) it has been proven that the corruption is imbedded.
Hi. You might be right, but this time Trump might be a lot more careful about who he chooses as advisors. And I’m always reminded of *the look* he gave certain people in the other camp … Hillary and Obama, for instance. He might, this time, unleash the Dogs of War on them and the whole UNIPARTY … shut down whole government agencies … with an Army of MAGA supporters coming out on the street to support him … peaceful as long as the UNIPARTY remains peaceful and does nothing to anger. So I’ve haven’t given up hope he’s the solution, if we can get him get back in power and if we will then make ourselves part of the solution by keeping the other side intimidated and off balance. But I do worry that he won’t get the chance to even run for office or that they will cheat massively again to prevent him and most Americans will again just shrug. I won’t.
So if you willing to spy on a President, try to frame a President, gather dirt as leverage…..
What else are you willing to do?
i honestly think, only people waging war against this country are allowed to spy on the President, because they accept the “stronger” consequences.
Steal an election.
Exactly 💯
Not the first election they’ve stolen, but the one they got caught on.
Exactly 💯
They’re willing to do Anything and Everything for control
How about trying to murder a few hundred thousand Americans with a bio-weapon created in China and paid for with our money?
Oh…but was it really created in China? Or right here on American soil? My money is on a lab in NC.
I wonder if Durham’s snail pace is due to inadequate resources compared to Weissman/Mueller; to painstaking due diligence or to deliberate slow walking for a specific purpose.
How many crimes will the top level Teflon Democrats and their allies never be prosecuted for?
I suspect the answer is–Count every contrived fake scandal, illegal political op, dirty trick, vicious frame up, MSM defamation, despicable plot and so on that the DNC, Hillary, Obama/Holder/ the Biden Handler regime has ever committed and you will have the correct number.
They say that if you’re going to take a shot at the king/queen it had better be a kill shot, because you will never get a second chance. I’m hoping Durham understands this, and is making damn sure his evidence, when presented, is irrefutable.
Nope
He had to start over with his entire work product After leaving us attorney office. All docs left in govt
And covid caused delays in grand juries Once started up
They’re rolling the dc mob up from small fish to med to the big fishes. Hildog comey, etc
Per Sundance’s outstanding talent, extremely well written, informative (and terrifying.)
The Left’s machinations infuriate me!
God bless you Sundance and God bless of us still fighting for America.
On a side note, I didn’t understand the post about “doxing.” Not sure what it meant or its intended audience…

Doxing or doxxing is the act of publicly revealing previously private personal information about an individual or organization, usually via the internet.
In yesterday’s case I imagine but am not certain it had to do with the tow truck companies or someone involved in the interference with the Canadian Freedom convoy.
Ohh oh that’s terrible! Thank you for replying. People never cease to disappoint; why anyone would choose to dox someone is beyond me.
Uhm, so where is the WHO? Who installed Obama? Name names. We know Tucker reads this page and he does not appear to be controlled opposition.
Really?
While I am thankful there is a voice at Faux stepping up now, we’re well past when a man with the audience he has couldn’t have helped move things along. He chose not to.
Paul Ryan, yeah the guy that quit as leader of the House and said he was looking forward to a quiet life in Janesville, is his boss. He was the leader for half of PDJT’s term. How much did good ol’ Paul Ryan get done? He advanced the cause of accountability and conservatism so well I cannot think of one bloody thing he did.
If you are looking for one name, it is not one person.
The point of the excellent and comprehensive article is that it is systemic rot. Both parties selling out the American people and disenfranchising her citizens on every front. They are the UniParty.
The I C picking winners and losers, in business and politics, wrangling for an even better chokehold over everyone and everything.
Remember according to Matt Gaetz Paul Ryan is on the board at Neocon Faux and got Lou Dobbs fired. He also has House Speaker hamstrung PDJT & MAGA. Newt Gingrich the traitor performed much the same role when the Republicans controlled the Senate & House under the criminal Clinton Admin, helped pass all of the antiamerican trade deals, do nothing about immigration, impeach Clinton on minor stuff and let him skate on treason & and a long list of high crimes which should have taken down the Clinton Admin and Democrat Campaign Finance Committee. Gore was involved also so we would have had another fascist CFR as our President, Gingrich. But good ole Newt let them all skate

I’ll say this much: we’ve gotten more info from Durham than I thought we would. Wouldn’t be a bad thing if some bigger hammers were to drop in, say, 2024. 😉
Rhetorical question, but how can the Hildabeast even be allowed to run in 2024 now that we know for a fact that her campaign illegally spied on her opponent? Sounds like she needs to be indicted.
.
And to think how that poor schmuck Richard Nixon flamed into infamy…
nixon could not imagine such corruption
Nixon was another deep state “Patsy” like Obama. The CIA’s fingers have been deeply in domestic affairs my whole entire lifetime…. at least, and that’s 6 decades.
War criminal Henry Kissinger was Nixon’s handler who ordered him to open up with Communist China

Gosh Sundance. You know how to make a girl’s Saturday night special. This is awesome!!! Frightening but awesome.
FILMMAKER AMANDA MILIUS WAS RIGHT…so it turns out that Milius was 100% correct in her film “Plot Against the President.” You may recall that Facebook and Amazon gave the film the cold shoulder, because the idea that the Clinton campaign had colluded with intelligence agencies to undermine the Trump administration was just too “out there” to be true. Well, Special Counsel John Durham just filed a motion consistent with the film’s allegations. If you haven’t seen “Plot Against the President,” I recommend it: https://missliberty.com/vindicated-amanda-milius-plot-film-was-right/

I have read a lot of you stuff over the years and I think this is the best article you have ever written… I’m sure I’m wrong… you have probably written even better ones but damn this is good.

Love it…Prescient, brilliant and funny…
Nobody around like Carlin anymore…
I see you dropped Cracker from your handle, Sundance…
Maybe there should be meme; ‘Who murdered George Carlin’
Sometimes when people are asked about their political leanings they will give answers like; I’m a Kennedy (J) democrat, or I’m a Reagan republican, or even a Reagan democrat. As for me, I’ve long considered myself a George Carlin conservative.
Yup!
I saw this when it first appeared but it’s far more applicable today than it was in 2006/2007 when his recorded show was released.
Given the school boards and teacher’s unions today and the promoting of CRT and other deliberate brainwashing techniques; the increased dishonesty and lunacy of the corrupt media and the highly selective social media censorship and so on, its a miracle there are any critical thinkers left.
Fortunately, there are still several alternative options from the Big Club’s offerings left with more to come I hope, to keep the truth alive.
Excellent synopsis!!
BEHOLD A PALE HORSE – author Bill Cooper was exposing the ” IAO ” or total information awareness office , both before and after 9 / 11 / 2001. ( Bush gang and John Poindexter driven )
They have been weaponizing against ALL people who oppose the New World Order a long time.
Just watched an informative interview with Catherine Austin Fitts ( recent ‘ Dark Journalist ‘ podcast )
She outlines the many parts of the global control grid being built , and explains how , VERY FAST , these parts will be connected and assembled to put everyone in a ‘ Digital Prison Camp ‘.
I don’t agree with her on everything , but found it a worthwhile listen. You can only get the big picture by putting the time in. ( PS – there is never enough time …. choose wisely )
So Cooper was kinda of a Snowden, before Snowden. His book is a classic
That book is so accurate with predictions , its amazing.
Every member of the SSCI/government/Senate/Congress is compromised in some controlling manner.
Massive blackmail
Mad Maxine Water’s statmement about Obama’s MASIVE DATABASE on everyone
